    Home button, cortana, connecting to internet not working


    Soon after downloading Windows 10, problems started emerging. Nothing happens when I click on the the icons for home, cortana, connecting to the internet, or power. It is impossible to establish an internet connection, the troubleshooter "couldn't identify the problem". The audio service is also malfunctioning.

    I tried to run a recovery, but was unable to do so, as "The Volume Shadow Copy service used by System Restore is not working". I ran sfc/scannow several times, and the result is that it "found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them".

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    :)

    Home button and Cortana Search is not working

    Hi Pol,

    This might be caused by software conflicts. We'd like to confirm the following information to provide a suitable solution to the issue:

    • When you say you did a restore but to no success, do you mean a system restore?
    • Were there any changes made on your device prior to the issue (updates, change in settings, etc)?

    In the meantime, run the Windows app troubleshooter as initial workaround to resolve the issue.

    Looking forward to your response.

    Unfortunately, what was suggested on the page didn't help either. I ran sfc /scannow in safe mode, with the same result. I tried resetting, but it "could not find the recovery environment". I don't have Windows installation or recovery media. Any ideas what I should try now?

    Once again, thanks in advance.

    The problem was finally solved, but I had to go to a computer service shop, where all software was removed, and Windows 10 reinstalled.
